HC Deb 12 May 1958 vol 588 c9W
65. Mr. G. Thomas

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what protests he has received from the Amalgamated Society of Woodworkers concerning soil pipes being laid inside council houses in Cardiff; what reply he has made; and what action he has taken by circular or otherwise in view of the threat to health involved in this practice.

Mr. H. Brooke

I cannot trace having received any protests about this from the Amalgamated Society of Woodworkers. Cardiff City Council, in common with many other authorities, has been using the modern single pipe system for about five years, and there have been no complaints to me.
